Why does it all go by so quickly when there were days I thought I'd never make it through? Well I did, and I do miss it. But I try to remember some wise council I once received: the best is yet to come! Thanks for letting me watch your family grow up along side mine.

She went from driving to her own job, to visiting with a boy (I knew him, it was okay), to graduating early from school, to moving away. She is now married (just celebrated 8 years yesterday), has two terrific kids of her own, and is a successful wife, motherkimikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11634123461748138071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-91674381769879964182013-08-06T22:54:29.770-04:002013-08-06T22:54:29.770-04:00Absolutely beautiful Dawn.

From everything that I have read from when you started blogging (I have been stalking you since the Pokemon days) I think you have raised some great kids and while you will always worry about them - I don't think you have anything to "worry about". They all seem to have very good New Life and Attitudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04432719200863908254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-62222678506653765502013-08-06T16:40:08.773-04:002013-08-06T16:40:08.773-04:00Very nice.
